# About Embedded Scripts and the CLI

<blockquote classname="note">

**CLI Documentation Notice**

We've released a [new Wix CLI](https://dev.wix.com/docs/wix-cli/guides/about-the-wix-cli.md). Continue here if your project uses the Wix CLI for Apps. [Determine which CLI your project uses](https://dev.wix.com/docs/wix-cli/guides/development/determine-which-cli-your-project-uses.md).

The Wix CLI makes it easy to create and develop embedded script extensions.

For general information about this extension type, read [About Embedded Scripts](https://dev.wix.com/docs/build-apps/develop-your-app/extensions/site-extensions/embedded-scripts/about-embedded-scripts.md).

## Why create an embedded script extension with the CLI

The Wix CLI simplifies setup, testing, and deployment for embedded script extensions.

+ **Single-command setup** - Generate an embedded script extension in your app with one command.
+ **Easy, early testing** - Test the embedded script extension on a development site before building an app. You can specify values for dynamic parameters to use during testing.
+ **Use local files** - Reference any file in your app's directory from your HTML code with a relative link — no need for external hosting or CORS handling.
+ **Simple embedding** - Offload the responsibility for embedding the script to the user, avoiding complex authentication procedures.

## Templates and tutorials
